Join us in game for a super weekend of Double-XP goodness starting July 28 at 9:00 a.m. PDT (12:00 p.m. EDT / 5:00 p.m. BST / 18:00 CEST) until July 31 at 11:59 p.m. PDT (2:59 a.m. EDT / 7:59 a.m. BST / 8:59 CEST)!

This is your chance to level up those heroes or villains you couldn't find time for! Unless you're in serious need of Inf or Prestige for a bit of super shopping in game, in which case you'll be happy to learn that you'll also get double the Inf and double the Prestige over the Double XP Weekend!

So start planning, start thinking up that dream build or get those characters back into the game! The Double XP Weekend is going to be upon us on July 28th!
This is awesome, because I have a 3 day weekend starting that Friday! Finally, I'm off got 2xp! Woot!

So, anyone cooking up any fiendish plans for 2xp weekend? Maybe a lowbie TF run through the ranks? Or a clear-all ITF?

Does anyone know if this also counts towards XP for your unlockable Incarnate stuff? Edit: Just read from a redname - no, incarnate XP doesn't count. Poop.

(I saw Rasta posted in the MotD on Jello Shooters, but thought I'd post the post here in case someone missed it, or isn't on JS)

So what're we doing people?

Tons of Terrific Taskforces?

A lot of Action-Packed Alignment Missions?

Ridiculous Repetitions of Raids?

Simply Silly Slews of Scanner missions?



Clicking on the linked image above will take you off the City of Heroes site. However, the guides will be linked back here.

I'm mean to my lowbies.

They tend to get attention only when the situation warrants it: when I'm teaming with someone in the same level range, which is rare.

I'm thinking I might take one or two out of the basement for this.


Note: Added to calendar.

Task Forces, a weekend long!
Mothership Raids? To do something different, for me at least, since they are never on my hours.

Anyway, will be a weekend of fun:-)

July 28th is my 10 year wedding anniversary. My wife and I are heading out of town for a long weekend to celebrate. When I told my wife double XP weekend was the same weekend as our anniversary vacation, she suggested that new matching laptops may be great additions the the anniversary plans. Yeah, I married the perfect lady.
